2:30 pm
edition of the day it was a mixed book almost but my sixth dropped into negative territory in the last hour of trade hours for the russian ruble though it was a better day we've had a real selloff in the last few weeks old so but it managed to finish up against the boss can stay out for the euro it is heading south a lot of that is because we had a look the run of manufacturing data coming out today we had germany's. lies about was a setting off alarm bells on the wall street though it's still often bonding and it is trading just now so it's lost a little bit of momentum but the markets all reasonably encouraged by signs of stabilization in china i'm personally expected to claim it sells. well i want to mention the fact that facebook is the outstanding performance today up over twenty percent also really encouraging third quarter results now all the way here on on t.v. we talked to middle east expert professor. about the conflict in syria what impact
2:31 pm
the ousting of assad's regime could have on the region say with us the law. so with mixed syria there are all those that say that a foreign military intervention in the country is far from a foregone conclusion and i'm joined by one of those people right now professor going to man from the university of mines thank you very much for speaking to me. so what options are still available in syria first of all a military intervention in syria is a nonstarter right from the beginning because this would be based on the international norm of responsibility to protect and this needs the approval of the united security council and it it's obviously in that neither china nor russia will give approval they would definitely make
2:32 pm
a. is there still a role for the arab league to play the arab league is one of the main act in the region especially saudi arabia and also. both of them tremendously supporting the rebels it is in the interest especially of saudi arabia that the a wide government in syria is oust it so definitely as a main route to saudi arabia and the majority of the arab league they play and important role for the future for them for the future of settlement why should saudi arabia want the alawite south stood well it's the basic. in rivalry between the conservative sonny monarchy in
2:33 pm
saudi arabia and the shiite government in iran so. if. it's oust it in syria it would mean that the shiite xs from iran via. the shiites in iraq syria to be shiite hizbullah in southern lebanon this axis will be destroyed it. which means also that this would be a tremendous blow for the political influence of iran in the gulf region now you mention quite a few countries there is there a risk of the crisis in syria spilling over into other countries and the conflict is spelled already in lebanon there are. quite a number of fights between. living in malta on women in
2:34 pm
particular in tripoli and. sunni supporters of bashar assad it. is also developing into a proxy war because saudi arabia massively supporting the sunni hariri clan in order to weaken the dominating shiite hizbullah in lebanon so the situation in lebanon is very tense and. the chances that even another civil war will take place here chances. are relatively higher now kofi annan might have stepped down from his role as a peace mediator but is his six point plan still the best option for peace in syria well i think it's the only option however right from the beginning especially the
2:35 pm
united states but also saudi arabia qatar they were against it and they really made it a nonstarter it's quite clear that brahim to follow often on is taking over the same plan and it's also obvious that russia still supporting the plan so if you really look for a peaceful settlement it would be the only chance but as. known as saudi arabia is turkey the united states u.k. france as long as they demand for the toppling of. there's no chance that this plan can actually put be put into reality in your opinion how accurate is the news coverage of what's been going on in syria being. like in every war there's propaganda from the from both sides
2:36 pm
for quite a long time it was mainly the information from the opposition which was reported in the mainstream media in the west. or is information. from the south side was neglected and discarded as provide under however recently during the last few months it has turned out especially and that the atrocities the message committed by. rebels have it. such. that they can no longer be neglected so we see a great deal much from all objective reporting on the situation down with quite a number of journalists in the country both on the side of the rebels as well as on
2:37 pm
the side of the government our spring type uprising still a risk to leaders in the gulf states they are definitely tremendous florent for all governments in the g.c.c. countries there are three tarion rulers mainly based on one family the greatest friend of costs in the case of saudi arabia because we have strong gap between rich. it's poor a higher rate of unemployment so there's quite a lot of the satisfaction with the saudi government so the saudi government has to do everything it can in order to secure its survival so saudi arabia is still very much at risk from demonstrators saudi arabia is definitely the country which has to feel the strongest opposition and this was also
2:38 pm
the reason why the saudi government tried. to quell any opposition by extremely generous projects for housing. employment for support financial support of its population however it still the question is whether this will be sufficient to secure the monarchy in the long run searching focus now to the ongoing dispute between iran and israel do you think that we could see an attack by israel in the very near future it's pretty unlikely first of all there's a mess of objection from the american side so if israel were to take this really would be a blow for the relations between israel and the united states obama cannot afford during the presidential campaign actually to enter into
2:39 pm
a new war another point is that all generals all major. responsible people for the security of israel have to clance and that an attack from israel against iran would be disastrous. in addition to this we have to see that as a tremendous threat and that be allies of iran especially the well. hizbollah will attack israel this could be a devastating effect on israel and. very important impact would be and that oil prices would increase dramatically and this would be a tremendous blow for the whole economy of the world so there are too many objects and it's against the israeli plans to attack iran but
2:40 pm
surely if israel attacks iran before the us general election a bomb has to support them doesn't this is just what the american government doesn't want to do it all because obama has won in the last election mainly because he had promised we would bring bring back our boys from iraq from afghanistan and he had promised not to start any involvement in the region so it would be extremely unpopular and also increasing oil prices would be a major problem during an election campaign how important is the role of russia in the middle eastern region role which china and russia are playing is very important from the western point of view they are blocking any attempts to topple
2:41 pm
the syrian government through their veto in the un security council from the russian point of view they have been. for for decades the most important allies of syria they have a naval base in in toulouse the only one in the mediterranean they have excellent economic relations and the other. main supply zero or sophisticated weapons. into syria and these points these circumstances it's quite obvious that. there russia would do all it can to support the syrian government professor thank you very much for speaking to me the work of.
